Versatile System Online

"Another one down," Adrian said. His hand was dripping with blood and it wasn't his. The troll in front of him had a hole in its chest. Blood gushed out of it as Adrian smiled eerily. His face was full of satisfaction and Adrian was enjoying every bit of this expedition.

He did so to the point that he even forgot his hate for the dean and his supporters. He worked with Sirius like a true teammate and both of them held each other's back.

"Good, let's move in deeper," Nia called out as she rerouted everyone present and led them forward. Her body was covered in ite glowing armor that had almost fused with her body. Holding two short swords in her hands, she looked no less than a Spartan warrior born for carnage.

Alongside her was Kashish who looked no less stunning. Her hair flowed in the air as if she was a goddess herself. The vines below her feet provided her with a safe path forward. They covered her body fully and she looked even more stunning.

"Why are there two people missing?" Sirius's voice sounded as he asked. He had just appeared out of nowhere and he was still in his werewolf form. His snout dripped with blood as it was apparent that he had come back from having a hearty meal and enjoyed it very well.

"I guess they were broken away from the group?" Said, Nia.

"No, something has changed," Sirius spoke.

Turning to James, he nodded and gave him the signal to check the surroundings.

James nodded and disappeared.

On the other hand, Hailey stepped forward. Her body was covered in tight-fitting armor and she looked no less stunning. Though, her style was a bit different as it leaned more onto the revealing side.

"I say that there is some other creature here," said Hailey.

"Hmmm… that is a possibility," Adrian spoke. Though, he didn't notice Hailey's eyes glowing a purplish color.

He didn't know when but he was influenced by Hailey. Hailey smiled and spoke, "I say that James and Adrian look for the other creature while we all move forward,"

While saying that, Hailey leaned forward towards Adrian and whispered in his ear, "I trust you that you will do this for me please," She said in a very seductive way. Not only that but the effect was so prominent way that both Nia and Kashish were able to notice a bulge in his pants.

"Sighhh… Hailey that's it," Sirius snapped at her. Walking forward, he held Adrian by the shoulder and shook him hard.

"Hey Adrian, don't lose your calm," Saying that, Sirius turned to Hailey and said, "If I see you playing your dirty tactics once more, I won't let you see the other hallway. Also, Adrian isn't going anywhere,"

After this small encounter, the team continued forward. Occasionally killing a few trolls here and there. Though, during all this time, Sirius and the others failed to notice one thing.

Slowly, Adrian was moving closer and closer to Hailey. That too out of his own will and it wasn't only Adrian. Slowly, a lot of members were moving towards Hailey and seemed to be doing things for her.

By the time Sirius noticed it, it was too late. Only half a dozen of them were left together while the rest of the two teams were with Hailey. They walked with a strange emotion in their eyes. Some seemed to be captivated, some controlled while some were simply following the fire of lust.

"Just what is your problem?" Sirius snapped yet again. While he did, a shadow rose behind him as he expressed his anger fully.

"Huh? What do you mean?" Asked Hailey innocently. She did so with such accuracy that Sirius looked to be the accused here and that was what everyone under her control felt.

Their eyes blazed up as they eyed Sirius with hatred. They looked at them as if he was their mortal enemy and stepped forward. Leading them was Adrian and right besides him was James.

"If you dare say anything else to her, we won't let you see the end of the hallway. That's our promise,"

"How dare you!!!!" Sirius blazed. His anger shot through the roof as his eyes turned red. Moving forward, his claws extended further as dark armor covered his body.

"Hey, Sirius! Don't. That's what she wants. Leave her be, we shouldn't fight right now," Nia stepped forward and spoke.

"But just look at them. They look like her personal soldiers. What will they fight for? We will just die on the battlefield while she will take credit," Responded Sirius in defense.

"just don't. Ray will be here soon and he will deal with them. Let's distance ourselves till then and move forward," said Kashish. Raising her hands, a few vines sprouted out of the ground as they rose to the air.

With various spikes on their surface, the vines went back into the ground once again.

"Don't worry about them. Just a safety precaution," Said Kashish and turned silent. Not revealing what she did, she remained as vague as possible.

"Okay," Sirius replied despondently and continued walking forward. He also didn't want to pick a bone with them. They were his fellow mates who had fought alongside him on the battlefield and he didn't want internal strife at the moment.

He knew that they were not in their right minds and he had to fix them all.

"Okay then. We need backup," Nia spoke and turned to another member with them. This was a new member Ray had chosen and he had instructed Nia and the others to keep the guy with them.

As for why? It was probably the person's ability. The man had a communication sort of ability that allowed him to link himself to any sort of frequency and send signals, transmissions, and messages through it as long as he knew the frequency.

"Kain, we need you to send a message back to the support team and tell them to send a person named Elina. Also, don't tell about the matter here to anyone," Said Sirius.

He had taken a lot of things into consideration and he thought Elina to be the perfect person for support. Not only was she a strong fighter but had various other special abilities and tricks up her sleeve. Also, a plus is her strength in the dark due to the special devil in her consciousness.

"Okay," Kain replied and sat on the ground. Taking a meditative posture, he closed his eyes and concentrated. Two small antennae grew out of his head and glowed slightly.

A few minutes later, he opened his eyes and looked at others. Smiling slightly, he spoke, "I contacted the said person themselves. It was a slightly rude girl who at first reprimanded me heavily but agreed to come right after. Also, I feel she is very scary," He said so with a bit of fear in his eyes.

"Sighh… your fault. I told you to contact the team leader and not her," Sirius told him and turned around.

He could feel something closing in fast and it wasn't weak. The thing gave off dangerous signals and very high energy levels comparable to his strength.

"It's either her or some very strong enemy," Sirius muttered. His fur grew out further as his body enlarged. He transformed fully and concentrated on the person moving straight for him.

"Awooooooo," He howled as a sonic wave was spread out in the surroundings. The air blew by as the aura of two powerful individuals intersected together.

"Eheehehe…" An eerie giggle sounded as the person closed in on Sirius and punched with full force.

"Heyyaaaaa," Sirius shouted as he pushed his palm forward and blocked the punch. Skidding across the ground, he made eye contact with those eerie black eyes filled with hatred and malice.

However, there was another emotion deep in those eyes that wasn't lost. It was something he had seen for a long time and wouldn't forget it ever.

It was the compassionate and caring self of the person. It was the real Elina that was still there. The same Elina considered him as an elder brother.

"So then, how was it?" the darkness receded as Elina's body came into full view.

"You have gotten stronger," Sirius commented honestly. If asked, he was very surprised to see such a spike in her physical stats, and deep down he was worried as well. What if this spike in strength had some side effects, but for now, there seemed to be none and Sirius didn't want to ruin the atmosphere as well.

"Okay then. I got a call from the rude kid and he explained the situation. So where is that which," Not shying away from her words, Elina spoke.

"Well, I told him to do so," Sirius replied and turned to point at the group of students moving forward like an army of robots, "That's the problem," He spoke.

"I see," said Elina as one of her eyes turned black. A strange aura was released from her. The aura was cold and filled with malic as Sirius's pupils constricted. He looked into her eyes and saw another presence in there.

However, as soon as he did, the presence disappeared. Befuddled and in shock, Sirius thought out loud, "Why do I feel that I know that presence there,"

"Huh? What presence? It's just a part of my system," Elina said and denied the whole thing.

"Okay," Sirius let it go. Not wanting to delve deeper into her private affairs. However, he made sure to interfere if he thought that she was in danger or anything of that sort.

"I can solve the issue," said Elina with a smile and raised her hand.

Just as she was about to activate her ability, a voice sounded in the hallway saying, "I am here and I am the leader here,"
